I awoke with the smell of coffee and toast drifting from down stairs, it was obvious that mum was up and had made breakfast, I stretched a little then...made my way to the bathroom, I could tell mum have been there by the sweet scent she had left behind, I took a shower then returned to my bedroom, I put on a matching set of white underwear then sat down to put on my makeup, I never put my makeup on too heavy but just to accentuate my eyes which mum said were electrify and attractive, I slipped. This is my mommy's phone. She is Melinda, not Maria," I heard that cute voice again."Umm..... Sorry for..... disturbing," I stammered and ended the call.I was shocked to the core.

No student or member of the faculty. “You already had a checkmate,” I pointed out.“You could have gone left. Too late now.”“You could have ended this game a long time ago.”“Where’s the fun in that? Plus, your concentration face is pretty cute.”“Me, cute?” I said, rolling my eyes.Wes frowned. “I’ve been meaning to talk to you about that.”“About what?”“I highly doubt that you think you’re less than average in the looks department. I know you know, Celine. I don’t understand why you’re in denial.”“I’m not in denial,” I said.
